7 Reasons why PewDiePie is an actual genius

If you're familiar with YouTube, you shall be familiar with the man who has been on the top of it for the past 5 years.


Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg, better known as PewDiePie. The Swedish guy who got famous by playing and commenting on video-games. And now commenting and reacting to popular and trending internet content.

Here are 7 reasons why PewDiePie is an actual genius:



07 | Building his kingdom out of nothing.

Lots of PewDiePie fans know that he made his fame from his own work and dedication. Playing video-games was just the beginning of a whole life full of success. It's not fair to look at him like "I hate that guy, he got famous by just playing video games and publishing them on YT". Lots of people tried what he did and failed. PewDiePie has a charisma that attracts people and makes them feel better. And that's what many YouTubers failed to provide for their fans.




06 | Having continuous drama that drives him more views.

PewDiePie gets in troubles with minor YouTubers and personalities in a way that doesn't make him look bad. He got in minor trouble with a Twitch steamer known as "Alinity" and he got the full support from his fans and the whole internet. He also made a video and added some low-cost Indian drama series in it. He slammed an actress from India called Ekta Kapoor. She tried to slam back but failed. He also made fun of Ali A (which is a popular Fortnite player) and got away with it.

PewDiePie will always be relevant in the social media world but this drama only makes him more relevant.



05 | Having inside jokes with his fans.

PewDiePie is known for having inside jokes that his fans get and love. His "MemeReview" and how it kills the memes is one of his top jokes. His "just %399 chair" meme got trending for like a month on social media. His "but can you do this?" meme is pretty clever and sold all his merch (which is a chair designed for gaming and related stuff). His "respect women" joke was one of the best jokes on the internet.



04 | Contributing with fans to make content.

PewDiePie has great content. A content that he and his fans share on weekly basis.

His weekly show "LWIAY" is about memes that his fans make and he gets to react to them. This show makes his fans feel better since they actually are the ones that made the memes. The memes that PewDiePie started and made fun of.

03 | Making content and plots out of nothing.

PewDiePie is one of the rare YouTubers who actually make their own stuff by their own. This fifth reason is similar to the third one. Since it's an insider content rather than being an outsider.



His "Brad 1 and Brad 2" jokes about Brad editing his videos makes his content even better. I'm pretty sure that PewDiePie is the one that actually is editing his own videos and having Brad there for the sake of content and jokes. If you're a PewDiePie fan, you'll notice that the effects that are added to the video are the same good quality and taste as before. PewDiePie is actually a good video editor and a good photoshopper.


02 | Criticising his own self.

PewDiePie criticizes himself in a way that doesn't affect him and makes him look better to the people who follow him. He knows that he overuses the advantage of "10 mins videos" and yet he makes fun of it. He knows that his fans make his content in some of the videos and he talks about it. He admits that he's an introvert and how he's so bad at making handshakes and he even jokes about these topics. He knows that he shouldn't use the "N-word" back when he used to stream PUBG and he apologized. Not a lot of YouTubers feel the argue to apologize for their mistakes.



01 | Being on the top for 5 straight years.

YouTube witnessed lots of top subscribed YouTubers in its history since 2007. All of them failed to stay at the top for so long. Some of them stayed there for 2 weeks. PewDiePie managed to stay there for almost 5-6 years. That's kinda brilliant if you ask me. Uploading videos on daily basis and yet not losing your touch gets you the right to stay at the top.

00 | I know I am not supposed to give my own opinion but here's a bonus reason on why PewDiePie is really brilliant.


PewDiePie has his own weekly show called "Pew News". This show is hosted by him, or let's say Gloria Borger and is about the YouTube drama that happens over the week. His LWIAY show is also brilliant in a way. The show is about PewDiePie reacting to memes that his fans make over the week. And of course, we are not forgetting his weekly video "You Laugh You Lose". This one is about PewDiePie reacting to funny videos. PewDiePie also reacts to trending internet personalities and makes the best out of it. He uses simple words and jokes in a way that makes the video a genius one. PewDiePie's sarcasm is high and great. That is one of his best strengths.
